		<description><![CDATA[It seems there is a glitch in the AirPort connection dialog (or underling software) in Leopard that will occasionally prevent you from connecting to a wireless access point with a &#034;Connection Timeout&#034;  message (usually involving WEP, which is yet another reason to upgrade to WPA).
